Spoke with Jehki's mum for two good hours today and we got to talking about things that are pretty heavy-hearted. Some tragedies are not exactly eluding us anymore; rape is not just an idea, AIDS is not just an idea, loss is not just an idea, poverty is not just an idea. Now that I am 21 (by year), I'm really thankful that I have a goal to work towards, that I am fighting to make my life mean something. Life is not too short to be serious. Life is too short to be wasted on empty dreams and pointless fun.
On another note, I'm glad that I can speak to Jehki's mum so freely and vice versa :) Sometimes Jehki finds it completely absurd that we are communicating so much but I know he's happy about that, and so am I.
